Is the question "Does it understand them?" or "How does it
display them?"
Because on a -CURRENT system with:

LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_ALL=C

"ls -al" produuces this:

-rw-r--r--   1 huff  huff   1204 Jun 19 17:16 tincelle.xhtml


at the correct point in the sort order.

FreeBSD + Unicode filenames

[Paul Macdonald]

Hi,

Can someone please point me in the right direction regarding handling 
unicode characters in filenames on freeBSD.


I have an rsync backup script running from a linux server which hosts 
many files with european accented characters.


The script bombs out on encountering these files, and as i understand it 
this isn't an rsync issue but presumably one of the filesystem being 
able to handle filenames containing these characters.


I've read a bit online re unicode terminals, handling unicode text in 
files, but i really just need to be able to have unicode filenames..


The systems are a mix of 6.2 and 7.0, but a fix under 6.2 would be most 
helpful..


thanks

Paul.
